After the fight was over, Isheng followed the ANBU obediently without any thoughts of falling out.

The delay just now was enough for Nezuki to report the news, and the ANBU still maintained restraint in treating him even after being injured, which showed that the other party did not have any ill intentions.

Ten minutes later, a three-story house appeared in front of them. It was hard to imagine that someone would live in such a remote area.

"We have arrived!"

"here is?"

Isheng looked up in confusion. Based on what he perceived, the house in front of him didn't look like an ordinary home, but there were many people inside, and he didn't know what they were doing.

"This is the Konoha Orphanage."

The ANBU gave Issei a rare response, and then took him to the backyard: "Go in and wait patiently."

Isheng was surprised. He didn't expect to arrive at the Konoha Orphanage after wandering around for a long time. If Tsunade hadn't taken him in, he would have arrived here long ago.

In the courtyard, which is not too big, there are already more than thirty children gathered, all between the ages of five and ten.

"Are these children orphans?"

Issei found a place to sit down, guessing the origins of these children and the purpose of the ANBU bringing him here.

New arrivals always attract attention, especially children who have never been seen before. While Issei was observing the children, the children were also observing Issei.

One of the girls, who was about the same age as the rope tree, came over and asked with a smile: "Hello, can I sit next to you?"

"Of course." Isheng nodded.

The girl sat down and introduced herself happily: "My name is Medicine Master Nonoyu, what's yours?"

"Issei."

Isheng responded with a smile, but was shocked in his heart. He was not unfamiliar with the girl's name. If he remembered correctly, the girl was a member of Gen, specializing in espionage work, and would even adopt Kabuto in the future!

"Issei, are you from the village?"

"Ah."

Nonoyu was very enthusiastic and yearned for the outside world. He asked Isheng about the situation outside from time to time. Isheng also learned a lot about the orphanage during the conversation.

The children in this yard, including Nonoyu, are all orphans living in the orphanage. The director told them that a big shot in the village will come over later. Once they are chosen by the other party, they can leave the orphanage and live a happy life. A life of plenty to eat and drink.

The children are looking forward to it. For them, having enough to eat and drink is happiness.

"I will be favored by adults."

Nonoyu was full of expectations, but Isei felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar. He understood that these ignorant children were all spy candidates, and Nonoyu next to him would be favored by Danzo!

What greeted them was hell!

"Squeak~~"

The door was pushed open and several adults walked in.

"The dean is here!"

Nonoyu stood up quickly, not forgetting to remind in a low voice: "Isheng, get up quickly, the dean will be angry if he sees us being lazy."

"Well, I see."

Isheng stood up. He could feel the children's panic, and they seemed to be afraid of the dean.

Fortunately, the dean was very busy at the moment. She followed a one-eyed man with a smile on her face and said flatteringly: "Master Danzo, all the children between the ages of five and ten are here."

"Go down and promise that your funding will arrive as scheduled."

Danzo responded indifferently. After the dean left happily, he turned his attention to the children. When he saw Issei, he obviously paused.

"Bring them all back!"

"Yes!"

The Ninja World War is about to break out, and the demand for spy ninjas has skyrocketed, and rootless orphans are the most suitable candidates to become spies.

There is no need to pick and choose, as long as you can pass Gen's cruel training, you are a qualified spy. If you fail, the consequences are self-evident.

"It's indeed Danzo."

Isheng followed the team, knowing that the place he was going to was the root. He never thought that he would get entangled with Danzo in this way, and he didn't know whether to call it good luck or bad luck.

"Being a spy... seems like it wouldn't be a bad idea!"

Issei thought about the pros and cons. Becoming a spy had many advantages for him. He could leave the village safely and maintain his relationship with Konoha without having to worry about being hunted down as a traitor.

There are also disadvantages. Spy work is very dangerous. Once your identity is exposed, you will basically die. What if you become famous outside and don't want to return to Konoha? If Konoha turns against him and exposes him, it will be a real dilemma.

There is also basic training. Although spies do not need to eliminate their emotions, processes such as brainwashing are definitely indispensable, which is very troublesome no matter how you think about it.

"Strange, why did old guy Danzo like me? Could it be Hinata's fault?"

Issei thought in his mind that the Third Hokage and Danzo would not target him. After thinking about it, only Hinata had this motive, and he was the only enemy.

But he couldn't figure it out, what benefit would having him become a spy to Hinata, or was it just to drive him out of the village?

"Well, it seems like it's really possible!"

The more Isheng thought about it, the more he felt like this. In the village, Hinata couldn't do anything to him, and at best he would be disgusted with him. But after leaving the village, Hinata became more energetic. Who knew that he was a thorn in Hinata's side and a thorn in his flesh!

"Cover everyone's eyes!"

As the team approaches the village, all the children are blindfolded and will head to Gen's secret base. The method of arrival must not be revealed.

Issei was also blindfolded. As he walked, he found that he was far away from the large army, and the ANBU around him also changed.

It was the ANBU of the Akimichi clan before!

Soon, the two came to a room.

"Go in, someone is waiting for you."

Feeling the chakra in the house, Isheng smiled slightly and pushed the door open.

"Brother Shengshu."

"Issei!"

Naoshu asked nervously: "Are you not injured?"

"Don't worry, it's fine."

Isheng smiled and sat across from the rope tree, pondered for a moment, and asked, "How is the situation now?"

"Very bad!"

Naoki almost flipped the table in anger: "Hinata's gang of bastards arranged for you to become a spy in the name of the family. They just want to drive you out of Konoha and let you die outside!"

"Sure enough."

Issei nodded slightly, as expected, it was indeed Hinata who was behind the scenes.

In name, he still belongs to the Hyuga clan and needs to follow the family's arrangements. Hinata cannot publicize such a shameful matter as expelling him from the family.

Therefore, the Hyuga clan can arrange for him to enter Konoha's official organizations, such as ninja schools, hospitals, ANBU, roots, etc. Spies are just a special kind of them.

As for the top management of Konoha, even if they knew the specific situation, they would not expose Hinata's little trick, so that was the scene just now.

"Strange, is this really the arrangement of the Hyuga clan leader?"

Isheng was very puzzled. Whether he was preventing him from enrolling in school or driving him out of Konoha in a roundabout way, he showed a sense of petty ambition. The Hyuga clan leader's temper should not be so low.

Seeing that Isheng was silent, Naoki comforted him: "Issei, don't worry, I have already begged my grandmother and will never let you be kicked out of Konoha!"

"Hey, Brother Shengshu."

Yi Cheng came back to his senses and raised the corners of his mouth.

"I plan to become a spy and contribute my strength to Konoha!"

"what???"
